Collaboration and setup efficiency stand out, though integration and local support need improvement

The solution is excellent for collaboration. From the agility point of view, they have very good sprint functionality, allowing you to set up sprints effectively. For Scrum teams, it is particularly good and easy to set up. With respect to sprints and getting metrics out, such as velocity and related measurements, the functionality is robust. The Scrum boards are particularly effective. Based on my colleague's exploration and setup, I observed how easily the team was able to use it. The integration with that tool was particularly helpful.

Manages multiple releases seamlessly

We have done some work with companies, probably four or five years ago and found the ability to manage multiple releases simultaneously as a main advantage, especially in complex programs with multiple concurrent releases. Running automated tests against back-level versions in certain environments is possible, and newer versions can be tested as well. It creates constant visibility into the test process, showing the status, bugs, and automated test results. It is a solid product in large corporations in Denmark, ensuring everyone knows where the process stands. There is a good understanding of what is critical, allowing prioritization of test cases.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"With some of the other tools, you have to buy 20 different plugins to get to the same capability that comes with the basic Agility capability."

"It can generate reports showing a burndown chart, burnup chart, and the planned vs actual velocity."

"It allows my clients to have one central tool to manage their agile projects."

"The solution is excellent for collaboration; from the agility point of view, they have very good sprint functionality, allowing you to set up sprints effectively."

"Agility is highly flexible. It can do much more than what our client is doing with it. They use it in a defined way. Some at that company have a much broader knowledge of agile and SAFe, but they're given applications and a mandated way to work. We had to work within their parameters and provide an accurate transition so the data would be mapped and pushed through."

"For visualization capabilities, the automation capabilities make it possible to support the different personas. The features and capabilities are excellent and come with excellent support."

"Templates: Allows us to standardize fields, workflows throughout hundreds of HPE ALM projects."

"The initial setup is straightforward. It's not too hard to deploy."

"It's user friendly, scalable, and very stable and strong. It's cooperative, meaning that I can assess the test to check it and follow the flow of defects, and the developers and the business can use this tool to follow the test process."

"The product can scale."

"It is a tool, and it works. It has got good linkage and good traceability between the test cases and the defects. It has got lots of features for testing."

"Quality management, project management from a QA perspective - testing, defect management, how testing relates back to requirements."

"Having used the tool before, I like the use of parameters, being able to do exports and reports of the data for monitoring of executions, and the defect management as well. I feel satisfaction in that area."

"Integration with other HPE products."

Cons

"It was not supporting some plugins. We wanted to migrate data that we were already using."

"The machine learning features are a new capability but could be improved. This is being worked by Digital.ai currently. Multicolor simulation, specifically, could be improved."

"The user interface can be improved by adding Save, Edit, Add, Cancel, and Return buttons to the popup windows that are displayed when you click on a child item."

"Improve how to create and track releases. Currently, I have to create child projects."

"In my work as a contractor, it's always frustrating when a client has multiple software applications that don't talk to each other and they all perform the same function. That presents a huge challenge between their IT groups."

"There is room for improvement in getting the analytics portion of the solution more integrated with the rest of it."

"The reporting feature could be improved. It would be better if they simplified some things."

"There needs to be improvement in the requirement samples. At the moment, they are very basic."

"ALM Quality Center could be improved with more techniques to manage Agile processes."

"If the solution could create a lighter, more flexible tool with more adaptability to new methodologies such as agile, it would be great."

"The downside is that the Quality Center's only been available on Windows for years, but not on Mac."

"Client-side ActiveX with patch upgrades"

"ALM uses a waterfall approach. We have some hybrid approaches in the company and need a more agile approach."

"Currently, what's missing in the solution is the ability for users to see the ongoing scenarios and the status of those scenarios versus the requirements. As for the management tools, they also need to be improved so users can have a better idea of what's going on in just one look, so they can manage testing activities better."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Comparing the pricing to other products, I think this solution is in the middle."

"You get what you pay for. Don't let your development teams dictate what the portfolio management team should use as the main tool."

"The enterprise pricing and licensing are reasonable."

"Quality Center is pricey, but cheaper is not always less expensive."

"For pricing, I recommend to buy a bundled package. Check the HPE site for more details."

"The pricing is expensive nowadays."

"We pay around $30,000 for thirty users, translating to approximately $6,000 to $10,000 per user, which is high."

"ALM Quality Center is a little bit costly."

"Most vendors offer the same pricing, though some vendors offer a cheaper price for their cloud/SaaS solution versus their on-premise. However, cloud/SaaS solutions result in a loss of freedom. E.g., if you want to make a change, most of the time it needs to be validated by the vendor, then you're being charged an addition fee. Sometimes, even if you are rejected, you are charged because it's a risk to the entire environment."

"HPE has one of the most rigid, inflexible, and super expensive license models."
